Re-discussion on "Worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later"
"Worry about the world first, then be happy" is a famous saying in Yueyang Tower written by Fan Zhongyan in the Northern Song Dynasty, which enlightens us that one should put public interests first and personal interests second, worry about the world first, then be happy.

If the country declines and lives are ruined, where can we talk about personal interests? Only when the country is strong and the people live and work in peace and contentment can individuals be happy. Therefore, a person should have the ideal of seeking welfare for the country and the public, think for the people, worry before everyone in the world is worried, and talk about his personal happiness until everyone in the world lives a happy life.
